The weight, minus the motors, should come out to be 10-12 pounds. And yes, I did design it to be very strong. I want our drive to be unafraid when he rams away.

The belts we are planning on using are from brecoflex, with the ridge in the middle to keep the belt centered. The backing, or the part that will contact the ground, is red linatex, which has been rated on FIRST carpet to have a 1.6 coefficient of friction.
